Directions and Maps? Class 2 EVS

Cardinal Directions are compass points that assist us in navigating or finding directions.

North, East, West, and South are the four cardinal directions. The initial letters N, E, W, and S are commonly used to represent these directions

What exactly is a compass? What is the purpose of a compass?

When we can't find our path, we can use cardinal directions to guide us. We use a compass to understand the directions around us. It is a tool that assists us in determining directions.

Because a compass needle always points north, we can readily determine where East, South, and West are. When you're alone and in an area that isn't densely populated, a compass can be quite useful. Mountains, forests, and oceans are examples of such places. Because there are no routes or highways on the open sea, ships and boats must rely solely on compass directions to achieve their destinations.

What exactly is a map?

A map is a drawing of a part of the Earth’s surface or a drawing of all of the Earth’s surface.

A map and a compass, when used together, can assist you in traveling to any location you like, as the compass will provide instructions and the map will assist you in identifying where you need to go.
